Concrete Coating in DFW

Transform Your Concrete Surfaces in 1 to 2 Days

Bare concrete is porous, stains easily, and deteriorates faster in DFW's heat and freeze cycles. A quality concrete coating system seals the surface, adds slip resistance, improves durability, and transforms the appearance of garages, patios, driveways, and pool decks in one to two days. The right coating system, properly installed, lasts 10 to 20 years with minimal maintenance.

True Star handles the complete process: surface assessment, crack repair, grinding and preparation, primer, base coat, decorative system, and clear topcoat. Surface preparation is the most critical step and the one most often skipped by low-price installers. We don't skip it.

Why True Star

What Sets Our Concrete Coating Apart

Surface Prep Is the Job

Concrete coating failures almost always trace back to inadequate surface preparation. We grind the surface to the correct profile, repair cracks and spalls, and apply primer before any coating goes down. This is what makes the difference between a coating that lasts and one that peels.

Coating Systems for DFW Conditions

We specify coating systems rated for Texas heat, UV exposure, and temperature cycling. Not all coating products perform equally in North Texas summers. We use products appropriate for the specific surface and exposure conditions of your project.

Slip Resistance Built In

Smooth concrete coatings become dangerously slippery when wet. We incorporate appropriate slip-resistant additives or textures into every exterior coating application. Patios, pool decks, and driveways all require different slip resistance levels.

What Separates a Concrete Coating That Lasts from One That Peels

Concrete coating failures are almost always caused by inadequate surface preparation. Coating applied to a surface that hasn't been properly ground and profiled will not bond correctly and will peel within months to a few years. The grinding step is the most labor-intensive part of the job and the one most often skipped by low-price installers. It's also the most important.

Moisture is the second most common cause of coating failure. Concrete that has moisture vapor transmission issues will cause coatings to bubble and delaminate from below. We test for moisture before coating and address any moisture issues before applying the coating system.

Product selection matters significantly for exterior applications in DFW. Coating systems that aren't rated for UV exposure and temperature cycling will chalk, fade, and degrade faster in North Texas summers. We specify products appropriate for the specific exposure conditions of each project.

Buyer's Guide

Common Concrete Coating Mistakes to Avoid in DFW

1

Choosing a low price without asking about surface prep

The most common concrete coating failure is caused by inadequate surface preparation. A low-price installer who skips proper grinding will deliver a coating that peels within months. Always ask specifically what surface preparation is included in the scope: grinding depth, crack repair, and primer application should all be specified.

2

Not testing for moisture before coating

Concrete with moisture vapor transmission issues will cause coatings to bubble and delaminate from below. A simple moisture test before coating begins can identify this problem. If your installer doesn't mention moisture testing, ask about it.

3

Using interior coating products on exterior surfaces

Coating products designed for interior use are not rated for UV exposure and temperature cycling. Using interior products on exterior surfaces in DFW will result in chalking, fading, and premature failure. Confirm that exterior coating products are UV-stabilized and rated for your specific climate.

Client Reviews

What DFW Homeowners Say About True Star

"I am extremely pleased with the travertine patio extension, complete with brick wall exterior, tongue & grooved stained pine interior with TV, fireplace, mantle and roof extension too! They also provided chop stone borders for three flower beds. The crews arrived daily on time, cleaned up at the end of each day and were easy to work with. Cameron and Eric stayed on top of day-to-day details and were excellent about communicating approvals and updates. I would use TrueStar again in the future!"

"These guys are the best! They came out quickly to provide an estimate and were so helpful making great suggestions. They knew exactly what I needed to improve my front landscaping. Their work far exceeded my expectations and pricing was very reasonable. They really back up their work and were extremely knowledgeable about what will survive in Texas and in my particular flowerbed lighting. It's been a year now since they planted, and everything is thriving just like they said it would. They even hooked up my sprinkler system to water a large pot in the front so I don't have to hand water. I highly recommend their work!"

Minor cracks can be repaired and coated successfully. Significant structural cracking may require more extensive repair before coating. We assess the surface condition during your consultation and identify any repairs needed before coating begins.
